I mainly use 120 roll film in 612 backs, and my emulsions of choice are:
Velvia 50
Porta NC and VC in both 160 and 400
Ilford Delta 100 and XP2S 400 (C41)
I also need black and white chemistry, I use either TMAX or ID-11, plus fix.
I can get all this pretty easy and cheaply here in the UK, but what mail order suppliers are there in Australia?
I also need a reliable lab for E6 and C41 processing. Here in the UK I send them to Peak Imaging if I want a great cheap and quick service, or take them to one of the expensive London labs if I need them back the same day or am worried about posting them off.
So, again, does anyone have some recommended labs they use in Australia - either mail-order or walk-in.
I'm sorry if this question gets asked a lot - I did search the forums but lots of the answers seem to come from 2004 to 2006, and we all know how difficult it is to get hold of film and processing compared to just 2 or 3 years ago!
Thanks in advance for your help
